Quick update:
Marty has been doing great. I know when he’s hungry because he’ll come out of his cave and up to the front glass . If you tap on the glass lightly he’ll move his arms around. Usually if he’s just exploring he’ll wander off and away from the glass when you approach.
I’ve been mostly feeding him frozen shrimp. Sometimes I’m in a rush, I’ll just drop it in and after a few seconds, he’ll recognize that it’s food and comes out to get it haha. Work smarter not harder.
Fed him a live clam today. He didn’t originally identify it as food like he does with shrimp, but he came out to check it out and once his first arm touched it, he immediately grabbed it to eat. Around 0:20, you can hear his beak. video link: Marty Eating Clam
I’ve had Marty since mid July. How much more time should I be expecting at this point?
